If the parking lights are flashing when you attempt to start the vehicle, it is an visual notification to you as to the reason WHY it doesn't start.
Six flashes of the parking lights is (-) or (+) shutdown and seven flashes is neutral safety shutdown. These are the most common reasons for remote starter malfunction. The (-) shutdown relates to the hood pin switch. A malfunction in this area occurs when the hood pin switch fails to make contact with the hood when closed. Adjusting the pin or the bracket it may be attached to will solve the problem. The (+) shutdown relates to brake wire. Unless you have your foot on the brake while attempting to remote start, the issue could be with the brake switch or the wire making contact with 12 volts during remote start operation. The neutral safety shutdown relates to either the toggle switch or, if this is a new installation, the thin black with white stripe wire NOT being connected to ground. If your remote starter has worked before and, is not working now, the issue will be with the toggle switch. The toggle switch will be located (usually) under the dash near the left kick panel. The kick panel is where your left would rest when driving.

Need to see a picture of the toggle switch since

the toggle switch will not disable it. you need to turn the key to the ON position WHILE the alarm is sounding (so if the sole virtue of turning the key triggers the alarm you will need to turn the key off and back to on), then press and release the valet switch once.
see the picture below to know what you're looking for.

Make sure the unit is programmed to automatic transmission (if this is a automatic transmission vehicle). Make sure the switch is actually in the on position and not off (mislabeled). Check the hood shutdown pin switch and make sure that it is making contact with the hood when closed. Check the connection for the black/white wire.

Have a Python 990 and

The antenna icon signals that the return data from the central unit hasn't been received - which means that either the antenna in the central unit or the processor have failed. Basically the alarm is dead, beyond repair, you will have to replace it. And you must find out if there's an external cause to the failure: as a shorted wire or a failed sensor, or a disconnected cable.

While our Dodge ram truck sits - the horn starts blowing. We think it has to do with the remote and the security. We have the Python CE0890 remote starter - it is a few years old.

Make sure that the neutral safety wire (small black with white) sees a chassis ground. If you connected the toggle switch to the wire, confirm that the other side of that wire is connected to a good ground. Confirm that the hood pin switch wire (gray) is NOT seeing ground during remote start. All of the above are relevant for a vehicle with an automatic transmission. If the clicking sound that you hear is also flashing the parking lights, that is a remote starter error message. Six flashes concern the hood shutdown (-) or the brake shutdown(+). Seven flashes concern the neutral safety shutdown.

Car starts but dies as soon as you put it in gear

if you start the car with the remote start you can not put the car in gear until the key is inserted into the ignition and turned to the on position. the vehicle will just die if this is not done.

The vehicle starts but runs only for about 1

you need to re-program your factory alarm bypass module. if you haven't used on then you will need to find out which one you need for the vehicle and install it. Check the Viper/DEI Website for details.

If your module is in, check the Can Hi and Low connections to be sure they are to the correct wires.
